### General concept
After the DLL is loaded and a network port is opened with the [`open()`](https://files.eleton-audio.de/gitea/Ludwig/OSC2AHK#open-network-port) function, it receives all incoming OSC messages. To specify the messages that should be passed to the AutoHotkey (AHK) script, "listeners" are specified and created by the ['addListener()'](https://files.eleton-audio.de/gitea/Ludwig/OSC2AHK#add-listener) function. When a OSC message is received that matches a existing listener, a "system message" is sent to the AHK script. This happens via the Windows message queue and the system message ID is used to tell the script which OSC address was received. Therefore with [`addListener()`](https://files.eleton-audio.de/gitea/Ludwig/OSC2AHK#add-listener) a ID has to be passed to the DLL which then uses this ID to post the system message.
### Functions
### Receive functions
These functions are the main functions used to receive OSC messages in AHK.
#### Load DLL
First the DLL should be loaded from within the AHK script by calling
